Yeah,

I spoke briefly with our tech guy yesterday (he is away on vacation) and he said it looks like some avatars might need to be reuploaded.

Probably a glitch somewhere.

TW items shouldn't be the end all and be all of cool, powerful toys. They certainly aren't in PR, where the best and coolest gear is almost always tech or enchanted/holy/rune weapons.
